This chocolate mousse is made with only four ingredients and can be made vegan as long as you use non-dairy chocolate chips. Instead of using egg whites, we are using aquafaba, which is the liquid from a can of chickpeas. This whips up just the same way. If you’d like to use the chickpeas, click here for a hummus recipe!
Ingredients
- The liquid from one can of chickpeas (aquafaba)
- 2 tablespoons sugar or sweetener of choice
- ½ cup melted chocolate chips (vegan)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
Directions
- In a medium-sized bowl, beat the aquafaba with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
- Melt chocolate using a double boiler and stir frequently. Let the melted chocolate cool slightly.
- Fold in the melted chocolate, sugar, and vanilla. Be careful not to overmix.
- Distribute into bowls to serve (makes 3-4 servings) and chill for at least 3 hours or overnight.
- Serve with fruit or whipped cream on top. Use this recipe to make some coconut whipped cream to add to the top (also vegan).
